I loved Kenley's and Leanne's wedding and bridesmaid dresses. I thought Jerrell's was terrible, especially his bridesmaid dress - it was just flat out UGLY. Jerrell's attitude has been bugging me just as much as Kenley's. I'm happy with the three that made it to Fashion Week.

I may be the only one, but I HATED Kenley's bridesmaid dress. Loved the color, but I would never allow my bridesmaids to ever wear such a short dress. Plus it just looked too plain. Like it should be on some 8 year old girl who's going to a party.

I dont' know what Korto was thinking, I think if she reworked the bridesmaid dress it would be better as a wedding dress.

I liked the color's of Jerrell's dress, and for some reason I thought the flower was a nice touch, but he didn't pull it off.

Leanne's was gorgeous, both of them!! I love the way she incorporated the waves into the bridesmaid dress. I really wanna see her collection.

I want to buy everything Leanne makes, period. Again, after looking at the collections they all showed at Fashion Week, my bets are all on Leanimal!

I didn't full-out hate the dress, but it wasn't a bridesmaid's dress to me. Definitely too plain and short. It was cute, it just wasn't bridesmaid-y. And I didn't think her wedding dress was any great shakes either. Funny how Michael called it "Alexander McQueen" but never called Christian on that last season!

I didn't really like Jerrell or Korto's, but I didn't hate them. I've seen stuff just as over-the-top as Jerrell's in magazines. I liked that they did something different.

From what we saw last night, I think Leanne's going to win. Her collection seems to have more of that all-important "cohesiveness" that the judges love so much. Kenley's seemed kind of all over the place. I did like what I saw of Korto's though.

Except for that hideous brown dress she made at the beginning of the season that had those weird loops hanging off of them!

I thought Kenley's dresses were fun, and I'd like to go to that wedding. The mood would have to be fun and zany!

I loved Leanne's dresses, they were so tasteful and lovely. The mood of that wedding would probably be all CLASS!!

I can see the inspiration, but they cannot accuse Kenley of plagiarism. The dresses are too different.

Despite not liking Kenley much previously (or at all), she wasn't bad this time around, and I LOVED her wedding dress. I thought her BM dress was pretty cute too. And of course I loved Leanne's dresses too - very elegant. I could pass on both Jerrell's and Korto's dresses, but from what I saw briefly of the collections I liked Korto's over Jerrell's. I'm so excited for the finale!

Seriously? How do you think those dresses are different? Cause Kenley added more tulle at the bottom?

I would definitely call that plagiarism, the similarities are too great.

And I much rather wear the Alexander McQueen dress than Kenley's dress. His looks much more polished and more sophisticated.

McQueen's dress looks better! Compared with Kenley's version, McQueen's is much more flattering! Look at the size of that model's waist!

OtterXO · #**116** 10-10-2008, 05:39 PM

Wow, when Michael Kors said it was a dead ringer for the McQueen dress I didn't think it was basically the exact same dress! Given that Kenley is obviously into fashion more than the average person you KNOW she had seen that dress before. That's so sketchy. Didn't Kenley even say something like "he didn't do this silhouette!" Right, because her silhouette is SOOOOO different.

PeppyGPhiB · #**117** 10-10-2008, 06:19 PM

I don't get what people thought was so plain about Kenley's bridesmaid dress. It was a tad short, but I thought it was perfect for a bridesmaid dress. But then I don't care for crystals and sexy sexy and spaghetti straps for a bridesmaid dress; I like pretty colors and clean looks, so her's was totally something I would pick out for my maids.

Leanne's Dress (I don't think this is a good picture of it)

Korto

Jerrell

Have y'all seen this http://projectrunway.auction.seenon.com/? They have final runway looks for Jerrell, Suede and Joe. I wonder why they let all three of them show at Fashion week?

Fashion Week has come and gone so I'm sure they all had to show as to have decoys on the actual final 3.
